8 thoughts on “A Big Win For The Anglosphere”

  2. Best yet, had the moonbat from Harvard won, Canader would have done a cap & trade that would have badly affected their shipments of gas and oil to the US. This would be brutal with the Obammer administration’s restrictions on US sources.

  3. Better yet, the separatist Bloq Quebecois was reduced to a rump and lost official Party status.

    It wont mean the end of gun registration, but the end of the long gun registry will surely be one of the first priorities (handguns have had a registration system since the 1930s or so IIRC and that’s not likely to change).

    The extrajudicial human “rights” tribunals are both Federal and Provincial. If the federal government gets rid of their HRT then the provinces may or may not follow suit.

    I’m sure that there will be certain budget items that receive scrutiny, particularly the $1 Billion per year federal subsidy of the CBC. The air force is finally going to get modern fighter jets (ours are 40 years old). And the Canadian Wheat Board monopoly might finally get broken up. Hopefully.

  4. I don’t mourn the Liberals or the Bloc Quebecois, but the New Democrats are basically a Communist party. Hopefully they won’t win the next election.

  5. The NDP may have won 100+ seats, but more than half are rookies that were never expected to win. One winning MP never even set foot in her Quebec riding, doesn’t speak French, spent the campaign partying down South. I saw the freshmen MPs on the news last night, and frankly they all had a “deer in headlights” look on their faces.

    The NDP won big because Quebec finally got tired of the Bloc, and everyone got tired of the Liberals (“elect us! Why? Err… we’re the natural ruling party of Canada?”). Oh, and Jack Layton ran a positive campaign that endeared him to a lot of people.

    Unfortunately, Mr. Layton is not in the best of health. Should the NDP have to go on without him, I’m not sure they can hold on to their gains. I don’t think they have the team or the program for it.

  6. But are Canadian Conservatives really Conservative, or do they make a Massachusetts Republican look like a raving extremist?

  7. Mike, I’m a Canadian and Libertarian, so there isn’t really a party for me; so, I vote for the least-bad alternative. The Conservatives in Canada are as about as far right as it goes up here, even though they are slightly to the Left of the Dems.

    I’m seriously thinking of reviving the Rhinoceros party.
